8、tion) and IEC (the International Electrical Commission) form the specialised system for worldwide standardisation. National Bodies that are members of IS0 or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through technical committees established by the respective organisation to deal
9、with particular fields of mutual interest. Other international organisations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with IS0 and IEC, also take part to the work. In the field of information technology, IS0 and IEC have established a joint technical committee ISO/IEC JTCl. Draft International
10、 Standards adopted by the joint technical committee are circulated to national bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75% of the national bodies casting a vote.

13、it is difficult for potential users to assess which machine might best meet their requirements. iv INTERNATIONAL STANDARD OISOAEC lSO/lEC 11160-1:1996 (E) Information technology - Office equipment - Minimum information to be included in specification sheets - Printers - Part 1: Class 1 and Class 2 p
14、rinters 1 Scope This part of ISO/IEC 11160 specifies the minimum information that is to be included in the specification sheets of printers so that users may compare the characteristics of different machines and select a printer which meets their requirements. It applies to printers that could be op
15、erated in an office environment. Printers requiring specially equipped rooms or specially instructed operators are not within the scope of this part of ISO/IEC 11160. ISO/IEC 11160 will cover different classes of printers. This part covers Class 1 and Class 2 printers, as defined in annex A. 2 Norma

20、3 Conformance In order to comply with this part of ISO/IEC 11160, specification sheets shall contain, in the order shown, all items listed in clause 5 which are relevant to the machine being described. 4 Test and measurement conditions Unless otherwise specified, all tests and measurements shall be
21、conducted at the following conditions: - Temperature: 18Cto25”C - Relative humidity: 30 % to 70 % - Line voltage: rated input voltage - Line frequency: rated frequency - Paper size: A4 - Paper weight: 60 g/m2 to 90 g/m2 - Paper transport direction: standard direction ) Currently under revision lSO/l
22、EC 11160-l : 1996 (E) OISO/I EC - Test pattern: as specified Instead of A4 paper size, the size most commonly used in the country may be used, both for the test page and the copies. This shall be indicated in the specification sheet. When weight of paper (g/m2) is given, it is assumed that the paper
23、 has been conditioned in the standard atmosphere defined in IS0 3066 (temperature 20 “C f 2 “C; relative humidity 60 % to 70 %). 5 Information to be included in the specification sheets Table 1 defines, for each parameter, the number and name of the parameter and a short description of the entry.
